Clowney would have stayed in College if paid

Quote:I didn't realize professional football players are only noble in their endeavors if they're playing for charity, and not to make money.  When did this happen?
 

I think some fans have this heroic "for the love of the game" image of pro athletes. They are called pro athletes for a reason. It's their job and they have a short shelf life. They try to make as much money as possible in the short amount of time they are able to play. And who can blame them? They are thrown out like a broken down racehorse as soon as they can no longer compete.
